郭沫若对文艺的功利观念在表达上存在着明显的矛盾。他反对创作动机上的艺术功利论 ,却积极肯定文艺所具有的客观社会价值。他虽主张创作过程是一个特定人格的真诚流露 ,但他对作家人格的要求以及他自己的人生理想却是博施济众、关切现实、积极进取等这些中国传统精神。如果忽视甚至忘记了郭沫若文学价值观的特定语境 ,就不可能对郭沫若文学价值观作出恰当的审视和分析 Guo Moruo’s utilitarian concept of literature and art there is a clear contradiction in expression. He objected to the theory of artistic utilitarianism in creating motives, but he positively affirmed the objective social values ​​possessed by literature and art. Although he advocates that the creative process is a true expression of a particular personality, his demand for the writer’s personality and his own ideal of life are the traditional Chinese spirits of concern, reality and enthusiasm. If we neglect or even forget the specific context of Guo Moruo’s literary values, it is impossible to properly examine and analyze Guo Moruo’s literary values
